Imagine a world where mathematical geniuses and battle-hardened Marines shape history from opposite ends of human experience. "Cryptonomicon" weaves together two parallel stories - one set during World War II and another in the late 1990s - connected by family bloodlines, hidden gold, and the evolution of cryptography. In the 1940s, mathematician Lawrence Waterhouse joins forces with Alan Turing to break enemy codes while Marine Raider Bobby Shaftoe fights across the Pacific, composing haikus amid the chaos of war. Fifty years later, Lawrence's grandson Randy builds a data haven in Southeast Asia while unknowingly following his grandfather's footsteps toward an enormous cache of Japanese war gold hidden in the Philippine jungle. This sprawling techno-thriller explores how information - who controls it and who can decode it - shapes the course of history and the future of wealth itself.
